The company said no illnesses had been reported. Company spokeswoman Bethridge Toovell specified the number of units affected by the recall.

Mondelez Global LLC said Saturday it was voluntarily recalling some Ritz Cracker sandwiches and Ritz Bits products over similar concerns about whey powder ingredient being potentially tainted with salmonella presence.

Earlier this month, Kellogg Co said it was recalling an estimated 1.3 million cases of its Honey Smacks cereal from more than 30 U.S. states due to the potential for salmonella contamination.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration also warned residents of eight U.S. states about recalled packages of pre-cut melon linked to a salmonella outbreak, which was distributed to stores operated by Costco Wholesale Corp, Kroger Co, Walmart Inc, and Amazon.com Inc’s Whole Foods.
